Run Time Alarm
The WCC III system also has the capability of alarming if the total 
ON time of a binary (on/off) value has exceeded the run time alarm 
limit. To assign a run time alarm limit, fi rst sign on by accessing the 
System Parameter Screen and entering your password. An access 
level of 2 or greater is required to enter or change alarm limits. 
After you are signed on, return to the Main Menu and place the 
cursor over “TREND LOGS” and press 
. The Trend Log
Summary Screen should come into view. To access a Run Time 
 Trend Logging Screen, use the arrow keys to place the cursor (>) 
by the desired run time point, and press 
. The following
screen should come into view:

In this example screen, we are recording the total “ON” time of 
contact Klc (COM to C contact closure) on satellite controller 
#1. When contact Klc is closed, or “ON”, Fan #1 runs. Run time 
recorder #1 records total accumulated run time of the fan. Alarm 
message #7 (Grease Bearings) will automatically appear on the 
 Alarm Summary Screen when the total accumulated run time of 
the fan exceeds 500 hours. Within one minute after the alarm 
appears on the screen, it will automatically e-mail if enabled. (See 
the Alarm Summary Screen in Section 3 for information about 
how to acknowledge a run time alarm, and see the Run Time Trend 
Logging Screen section in Section 3 of this manual for information 
about how to reset the accumulated run time to zero.)
